Statistical Power Ratings

This page rates every team on its stats alone. Every team is ranked in every stat, and each rank becomes points — 1st is worth 100, 32nd is worth 0. Stats are grouped into football families (passing, rushing, drives, scoring and so on). Each family is averaged, so no part of the game counts more just because more is measured about it, and then the families are combined with set weights — scoring and drives & efficiency count most. On offense, special teams and discipline are left out. On defense, discipline is left out. NET stats — a team's figure minus its opponents' (every stat listed as “Net:” is offense minus opponents) — count on both sides, offense and defense. Stats where a lower number is better — like points allowed — are ranked that way. Offense and defense are rated separately, and a team's overall Statistical Power Rating is 58% offense and 42% defense.

Each team has an Offense row and a Defense row: the rating, how many of that side's stats rank Top 3, 4–10, Middle 12 (11–22), 23–29 and Bottom 3, and the total. Click any count to see the stats behind it. This is a second, stats-only view, not the algorithm's Power Rating — the two are different numbers. It's early in the season: with only a few games played, one game can move these ratings a lot.
